Interbike 07

In case you haven't seen this already....

Jeez, that felt bike is a complete rip of this...

"Sure, the fixed-gear thing has been jumping the shark for years now"

Anyone have a unicycle for sale?

I might be persuaded to part with mine. Probably not though...

I have seen a chap riding home on his Unicycle down Hackney road several times?
Not sure I would like to try it myself?

Love bikesnob:

"Sugino knows that fixed-gear riders’ unquenchable thirst for cheap beer and snug trousers is rivaled only by their adolescent girl-like obsession with color-coordination and accessorizing. These candy-colored cranks are anodized to get you notice-ized. Because posing should never be monochromatic."

HA!

No comments on the Deep Vs I notice...

Mouse No comments on the Deep Vs I notice...

there is:

[cite]bikesnob:[/cite]If you consider a polo shirt, capris, and canvas boat shoes to be proper cycling attire, then you probably either own or aspire to own a pair of powdercoated Velocity rims. Colored Velocitys are to fixed-gear bikes what Ksyriums are to road bikes—de rigeur, excessive, and ugly. As such, it’s surprising Mavic haven’t followed suit by offering powdercoated versions of the CXP33. I suppose they’re counting on the roadies who will doubtless ditch their Ksyriums in droves in order to buy their new crap-tastic R-Sys wagon wheel. Velocity, however, will continue to offer their rims in a whole M&Mesqe spectrum of colors. I hear the green ones make you horny. I don’t know if it’s true, but I do know that pretty much all of them make me angry.

@RPM no I meant any response to his comments on deep vs

scott not scot has anyone ever seen what bikes HE actually rides?

yeah, and i believe there's some color-coordination, deep vs, and a front brake.

@what rpm posted from bikesnob: i'd argue that ksyriums on a road bike are FAR MORE practical than deep vs on a track bike.

Mouse @RPM no I meant any response to his comments on deep vs

aahh, I see.

apparently its brad from trackstar..

he rides this:

according to this in the comments

thats just a bianchi concept with a really sweet paint job and nice components.

That bike is awful, it looks like something you'd buy in the kids section at Argos!

yeh the dqm trackstar collab

You do realise he's taking the mick in those comments?

what???

bike snob taking the p**** . . . . !!!!

you must be joking!

;)

Vinz That bike is awful, it looks like something you'd buy in the kids section at Argos!

i know but just think how fun it would be to have such a silly bike, plus it would be funny to see who gets the joke and who doesnt, i think even trackstar made it as a joke on themselves from the outset.

danger joel thats just a bianchi concept with a really sweet paint job and nice components.

if you like barbie dolls crystal ken and haven't reached puberty yet

whats so bad about it? its just really bright and pink and white and stuff? obviously you would get laughed at and isnt the most practical, but its not really meant to be, its just meant to be bold and look cool.

my mistake i thought bikes were for riding :-) looking at that doesn't make me want to ride

beauty is in the eye of the beholder, i wouldn't want to ride that more than a mile or so (if it had brakes) i think it looks like a dogs dinner aesthetically, a design exercise that fails miserably a bit like this car:

just my opinion, I don't expect anyone to agree with it :-)
